But it doesn't - the much more even spacing between words and I suppose within words makes the whole page look more uniform. Like from a distance it is one shade of gray instead of weird whitespace patterns and lines. Ligatures and kerning you fly right over (at least I do) without giving them a second thought. Open an old book and the difference becomes apparent right away.
Yeah gotta agree with you there... theres something about the enhanced books that just make them... "zippier" to read. Really impressive and lovely to look at. I just wish theyd hurry up and update the android app with the features already!!! Surely theres a not negligible amount of people reading on their android tabs/mobile phones!

Oh, and update the Lord of the Rings books too!
